With area violence making headlines, students say they’ve become indifferent to crime
by Seamus Haney, Roman Ingrassia and Sara Hussein | Campus Desk | Published Sept. 10, 2026
After Sunday's shooting in Dinkytown left two severely injured, University of Minnesota students say they’ve begun to feel more numb to the violence that has frequently bothered residents.
Seth Brezinski, a computer science student at the University, has become increasingly detached from violence in Dinkytown. Already rattled by last year’s fatal shooting in November, he was hardly affected this year. This time, the shooting just made him sad.
Two adult male victims were non-fatally injured in the gunfire. Following the shooting, one adult male was arrested for carrying a handgun without a permit, and several other handguns from the scene were recovered and held by officials.
